The classroom was at the far end of the hallway but I can already hear it clearly. Someone was bragging about how many people he killed yesterday. Was he brainless?
Mr Beradi forced out a fake smile, "As you see, Wrath is quite a loud class..."
" It must have been tough for you."
" No... It was my job, I'll survive. They are not as bad. You will have to get use to them too. If you don't do anything to irritate them, I'm sure you will be fine. I'm sure you can leave this class soon." Why did everyone say that I am not suitable for this class? Wrath is self-destructiveness and violence right? Do I looked that tame? Maybe I was.
Mr Beradi opened the door for me and I mutter thanks before I enter the ear-splitting room.
I followed closely behind Mr Beradi across the room to the platform. Just as he step up the lecturer platform, a small knife came flying at him.
Time slow down for me, I can see the sharp point of the knife and victim's dazed face. Wow. He was sure slow for a teacher in a mafia school. Was he really unable to defence himself from a bunch of immature kids? His dazed face slowly understand the situation hie was in and opened his mouth to scream. Fail~ Should I save him? But if I do I'll somehow offend the students. Difficult choice... Haiz... I shook my head as I tiptoed and stop the knife between my fingers right in front of the screaming man.
This was a good quality knife. Even though it was small, it was heavy enough to maintain its stability which made it easy to control.
I pocketed the knife into my pocket. Mr Beradi was still blinking with his huge eyes can't separate reality from dreams. I patted his arm to pull him back from reality. I can feel the whole class staring at me, especially the silver guy that thrown the knife. I shrugged away the desire to fight and shake him harder.
His screaming stopped as he patted himself to make sure he was fine. Blinking stupidly, he forced up another smile, "You guys are learning very fast!" he turned to me, " You too! I thought you are not the fighting type."
" You are in shock, go back and have a cup of warm chocolate." I pull him down the platform. He nodded once and walked out the room almost tripped by his own legs.
"Hey! I mean after this..." Awkward filled the whole room. I really shouldn't save him, I'm all alone now. If this turn out into a fight, will I be able to win? If all their ability was about that knife thrower, I might not be able to stop all thirty of them come flying at me... So, no turning of face to them, if I do I'll fail my job as a contractor.
This was not the time to feel shy. I turned and face them. "Nice to meet you, I'm Lacie Baskerville. May I ask where can I seat?"
The silver hair guy stood up and walking leisurely towards me, " Lacie, you're good. There's no one that was able to catch my knife in this school! You are the first one." it's because the world you live in was too small, brainless.
"My name is Salvatore Carloni, I'm the chairperson of this class. Usually, the strongest person from each class will be chosen to be the chairperson..."
" I understand. I have no wish to become the chairperson or be in your way. I agree that you are the strongest, what just happen was just a fluke, so may I ask you, the chairperson where can I seat?"
He grinned in satisfactory, pointed at the last empty seat at the top. I haven't seen this type of proud people these days... Should he be in Pride? Maybe he was too violent...
